Little Richard's band never got the credit it deserves -- two tenor saxophones, one baritone and one bass sax in unison is what gives his songs that heavy, driving sound.
As a lifetime lover of R&R this is one of the best, I am 80 now and love all the oldies, real music. The beginning of R&R music!! So many amazing talented musicians that made the sound we all love so much-- influenced many of today's great bands and guitar players.
It's been a great time to grow up in this music era. I'm 58 and my parents were hippies, so I heard so much music from most genres since I was born. My kids 18, 19, and 23, now collect vinyl. They love music, too. I just saw John Lennon interview where he was saying Whole Lotta Shakin' can't be improved which brought me to this video. It's fantastic🎉
My son is 15 and had been listening to Little Richard's music since he was 5. He started taking piano lessons because of Little Richard. The day he passed, my son couldn't stop crying. Thanks Little Richard for possessing the power to move people and helping me bond with my son.
This footage is incredible-Little Richards energy,singing,working the audience,the great backing band,Little Richard is one of the great characters of Rock n Roll
@@STANDREW2 yes,not only were they a good backing band for live acts but they were also a notable session group which led to them being signed by Brian Epstein and being the support act for The Beatles on one of their major stadium concerts in the USA
Sends shivers down my spine. The black girls move so easily, with such cool, while Richard blows the place apart. If ever anyone asks why I love rock, I just play them this.
one hell of a lot of blacks took credit when white people were writeing their songs for them. even a lot of blacks didn't respect richard, they knew he was on the down low at your local bus station bathroom. but hey, whitey!
This is a study in how a performer works an audience. He starts out asking everyone to shake, almost as if he is asking their permission to stir them up. Then he begins the song and does exactly that. He then stops, and removes his jacket. At that moment, you can see in his face that he knows what he has done to that audience. He takes it all in, the raw energy of that moment, and then calmly walks back into the electricity, knowing that he is about to take them even further, and then uses their energy to go full speed ahead. It’s a precious, immeasurable moment of the youth culture of the time being absolutely captivated by this amazing artist, and I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anything quite like it, even from James Brown or Jackie Wilson.
I've seen many artists own a room like this... Little Richard was a master but this video does what is rarely seen: capture that uprising of energy between performer and audience. Maybe it's the intensity of the intimacy: this is a room with 200?
Richard drew from his musicality to perform from deep inside his soul. A transcendent performer, he called himself an “entertainer” but he owned the music and the audience.
@@mikehurley1016 It's partly because the producers clearly let the audience get up and do what all audiences felt like doing but sometime weren't able to do. Being a teen on the scene on those shows brought me here.
Some producers prohibited live audiences from getting up and doing what this fantastic audience was able to do. They're well prompted ahead of time to 'remain seated, no outbursts, etc.' In order for the recording to be effective sometimes. I lived in L.A. from '64-'67, being around live concerts and recordings. You can see many videos of audiences 'just sitting there' when not directed to do otherwise (always extremely frustrating for me to watch, but I get it)...and so THIS footage is exquisite; the spontaneity is superb and this film of Little Richard could be studied in sociology classes as to 'what people do when the music moves them no holds barred." RIP Little Richard. It was a long run, sir.
This is what rock'n'roll sounds like. Generations have strived to achieve Richard's electrifying performance. Now, sixty years later, his is still the standard for what rock should be.
To all you young people out there, everything you are listening to in one way or another is rooted from this man Little Richard. Nothing would be possible without him.
Now that he has just died, we look back and realize what a fantastic, wonderful, enormously influential and gifted performer Little Richard was in every way. The Beatles, the Stones, and everyone else of his time and generation were enthralled by him.
My viewings of this must be in the thousands by now, and every single time I wish I was in the audience. Absolutely incredible energy, and his band somehow match that. Absolute raw musical power.
Those young dancers are part of the show to dance for the television. He did a few songs before this with no dancing, but you can tell by the way they all rush out when he starts that they were WAITING for the gates to open so they can go completely wild. He won the entire audience over that they were all jonesing to finally get out and dance
I noticed that too. But in all honesty they were most likely picked before the show to do that. They were all in the se row and got up right in cue. The camera was positioned to get closeups of them., etc. Magic of showbiz means you have to make it look spontaneous. However that applause at the end seemed really genuine!
Loved him in '57 ( high school) & love him still! There's only ONE Little Richard! Noone else like him ever! Still makes me smile when I hear him sing!
This is a one in a million person. His charm, simplistic approach to life, and wits are unparalleled. From the interviews I've seen of him, the final years of his life were fulfilling. I'm happy, that someone who gave people so much great art and happiness died fulfilled. That doesn't happen that frequently.
Little Richard backed by Sounds Incorporated the perfect combination. The full on brass sound is just like all his classic records. This has a club feel to it rather than a TV studio,it's hard to believe this is 60 years ago the atmosphere is amazing!
The British Teenagers, knew how too enjoy ,Themselves.🎷🎶🎷🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶🎷🎸 The Americans, Rejected.The Black Musicians, And we invited them too Britain , when the Brittish invasion .was just starting .🎷🎶🎸Long Live early rock music .👋
this man show James Brown how to start this man was a true entertainer he knew how to make you laugh and he knew how to make you want to get up and dance he was Little Richard rest in peace and be with our God
This song has a convoluted history. It was originally written by a white country singer, Roy Hall, but the first record was by Black R&B queen Big Maybelle. Jerry Lee Lewis (as close as the white race came to producing its own Little Richard) covered it and made it an enormous hit, and now here's Little Richard himself taking it over.
He really owns the room. Wish he had been given the opportunity to do whole stadiums in the 1970s, like many later white rock artists did (Rolling Stones, for one). Black artists were rarely given the chance... Tina Turner would be, imo, the first black artist (male or female) who really filled stadiums throughout the 80s and 90s and even 00s... She sold more tickets than any other SOLO performer in history of any race and both genders! Anyway, I feel like a young, healthy, not-on-substances Little Richard would have rocked Wembley more than once for a TV special. With the right management, he could have been number one well into the 1990s.
Big Mama Thornton discovered little Richard Elvis Presley was already upcoming star Little Richard was not the first Chuck Berry is the father of ours an alarm Then you go back to Cab Calloway And way back then 20s 30s 40s Al Green music ☮️💜🔥💃🏿🤩😎🥳
This fantastic performance was filmed by the British TV channel GRANADA in its Manchester studios in late November 1963. Little Richard had just completed a 30 gig UK tour alongside The Everly Brothers and a new British group called, strangely, the Rolling Stones. On his six week UK tour, Little Richard had been backed by The Flintstones but for this TV gig, it seems he preferred Sounds Incorporated (who had backed him on his 1962 UK tour).
It's a show from the UK called "Don't Knock the Rock" in 1963, Little Richard said he's the King , the originator the architect & emancipator of Rock n Roll but he never said he was the inventor. Fat's Domino was recording since 1949 & playing since 1942 before Little Richard. As piano players they heard boogie woogie a popular style in the 1930's & 40's. Little Richard wasn't the first piano player to play standing up. In the 1940's there was a black boogie woogie pianist named Maurice Rocco who played & sang standing up & he was the blueprint & role model for Little Richard he must've seen him in the 1940's. Little Richards wild stage act set the standard for every rock n roll artist & everyone from Elvis & Jerry Lee to Prince & Michael Jackson all learned to rock n roll from Little Richard he was the man.
@@yogimama974 Sounds Incorporated was one of the bands managed by Brian Epstein. The horn players later sat in on "Good Morning Good Morning" on Sgt Pepper's.
RIP Little Richard, you were the real deal. You were the one of the original Rockers without a doubt, and while you might have preferred a Tiara to a Crown. We consider you Rock n Roll Royalty. He never disappointed in his performances, a truly gifted musician and will be missed by all who truly love Rock n Roll.
I saw him along with Jerry Lee and Chuck Berry in 98 or 99. To be honest I really went to see Jerry Lee who was great, Chuck was off form that night but they both looked like old rockers going through the motions. Then Little Richard came out, two half naked black blokes dancing next to his piano :) and he absolutely tore the place up... still as much energy as these performances thirty five years earlier. A total class act.
+seldenkid48 Rarely is a cover of a song better than the original, but you do have to and it to Little Richard: takes a great song to an even higher level! Go man!
The ONLY thing that Elvis did was make R&R mainstream, because he was white, and the racists felt that it was the only way to legitimize early R&R, and make tons of money at the same time by cheating most of the early artists out of their royalties, because they didnt give them any!!

They say Elvis was king of rock, but Little Richard was the King of Rock and Roll, his music still moves today.
Elvis is bullshit. Imitator, not the original.
Elvis said Fats Domino was the King of Rock N Roll
I do agree with you, Jerry Lee Lewis & Little Richard pioneered rock ´n´ roll.

The ACTUAL one and ONLY TRUE KING of ROCK 'n' ROLL, forever and ever.
Not in Elvis' class but great all the same.
The ONLY thing that Elvis did was make R&R mainstream, because he was white, and the racists felt that it was the only way to legitimize early R&R, and make tons of money at the same time by cheating most of the early artists out of their royalties, because they didnt give them any!!

What happened to the good old days when we had lots of fun and we had lots of great songs on the radio back then and soda was a dime back then.
